#1 Its a matter of time before you become indianized, or maybe you already have.

And that would be bad... why?

#2 Because that is the whole point of being Pakistani rather than being an Indian Muslim.

#4 "These Kashmiris were here today to celebrate our independence day with us, to show their love and gratitude to us and our nation. And here we are, doing absolutely nothing at a time when the brothers and sisters of these very Kashmiris are being ruthlessly killed by the Indian army."
Note that "these Kashmiris" are also doing absolutely nothing -- except spreading some tall tales to fan the flames of nationalism on independence day.

"I knew that this was not like the other stories which I hear from people."
Yes, this storyteller has a vivid imagination.

#5 McZoid, I think the Brits would like to send back the Paks. They are unlikely to want to reclaim the Raj.

#6 He's right, nobody cares.
Including me.

#7 Bring back the Brits.

Those days are long gone, McZ. The British soldiers and administrators who had the brains and balls to give India the most honest government it has ever had are long since gone and they don't produce people like that in Britain anymore. Even if they did, they couldn't spare them for India; they would be too badly needed in Britain sorting out their own collapsing society.

There were giants in the land once though. I'd give a lot to hear what John Nicolson or Colin Campbell had to say about the state of modern British society...

#8 He should be more worried about what Pakistan will look like when the Taliban takes over.

#9 A lack of violence does not indicate spiritual death. It is more the willingness to have endless strife until you get your way, that is spiritual death. He mourns that the Indians are killing his people, but doesn't reflect for a moment that this is because his people have killed Indians, and first. The Indians are fighting back against the senseless violence of his people.

He knows that his nation's leaders are corrupt. But he does not explain the source of their corruption, be it tyranny or Islam.

He doesn't even note that his country isn't even a real country, because large sections of it are enclaves of barbarian tribes, where the government does not rule.

His house is not a home, it is a sty. And until he and his countrymen clean up the pig swill they wallow in, they cannot blame others for the muck that covers them.

#10 FOX NEWS AM > MUSHARAFF RESIGNATION? CONTROVERSY > FOX Reporter claims that whomever succeeds MUSHARAFF AS PAKI PRESIDENT WILL HAVE HIS PRESIDENTIAL POWERS SERIOUSLY [Legally/
Constitutionally]RESTRICTED, AND LIKELY WON'T BE ABLE TO FREELY COLLUDE WID THE USA AS AT PRESENT.

PAKISTAN = POST-DUBYA USA = FUTURE USSA, versus UNITED SOCIALIST REPUBLICS ala "OIL STORM" [OWG Global SSR]???
